Lyrics

Look into the water, tell me what do you see?
I see a woman of flowers crying out to be free
I see a Goddess, a woman, in a circle of trees
I see Math and Gwydion fall to their knees
Fall to their knees
Chorus:
Welcome the May Queen
Sing for her now
For as the year turns to Samhain
She'll return as an owl
Blodeuwedd the owl
Stand alone in the tower, watch over your land
Hear the call of a hunter, call him into your hands
He is dark, he is handsome, and the King is away
Gronw says he must go now, but you ask him to stay
Ask him to stay
She can't live without him, so while the King is away
They plot to kill him in a year and a day
With a foot on a cauldron, a goat holds him true
By a fast running river, came the spear from Gronw
And the eagle it flew
My son where are you? For only I see
An old rotting eagle upon an oak tree
Come to me young lion and rest this night
For your wife is a bird now, she will never see light
Cursed to hunt in the night
